Extended Cable Support for Optimal Installation

The Iridium Beam Active Antenna (RST740) is engineered for land and maritime applications where long cable runs are required. This active, powered antenna offers a practical solution for installations where a passive antenna would not suffice, especially when exceeding cable lengths of 20 meters (60 feet). Its active design allows for much longer runs, up to 100 meters (300 feet), while still ensuring clear, reliable communication. This makes it an ideal choice for large-scale installations in challenging environments.

Reliable Performance Across Various Conditions

With a high-quality enclosure and omni-directional design, the RST740 is built to handle diverse environmental challenges, from extreme rain and snow to high winds. Its IPX7 waterproof rating ensures durability even in harsh maritime conditions. The antenna operates at frequencies of 1616.0 - 1626.5 MHz, making it fully compatible with all Beam products and Iridium devices, providing reliable global satellite communication.

Simplified Installation and Power Management

The RST740 comes equipped with a power breakout box, requiring a 9-32 VDC power source, making installation straightforward and accessible. Its small footprint and lightweight design, coupled with its pole/mast mounting capability, make it an easy addition to any setup. To manage the power amplification over long RF cable runs, it requires the use of a Beam-approved active antenna cable, ensuring efficient power distribution and signal strength over long distances.

Durability and Peace of Mind

Designed for longevity, the RST740 is backed by a 12-month repair or replacement warranty, ensuring reliability for critical operations. Whether used in remote land installations or aboard maritime vessels, this antenna delivers the performance needed for uninterrupted communication, with a rugged design capable of withstanding extreme environmental conditions.
